Cassandra smiles as she continues, "The Void is a paradise, I can wield my power here without shame." She gives off a sarcastic sigh before tsking, "Unfortunately, I had no Charles Xavier to teach me temperance." She looks directly at Linda — her eyes piercing into hers. "What about your Charles? Did he protect you? Did he make you feel safe?" Linda can't help but have her eyes water — she could've prevented the danger she put Charles and the other X-Men through but she didn't, she should've protected him instead of the other way around. Linda looks away, "We're mutants. We're never safe." She answers, Cassandra seems saddened yet unsurprised by her words. Alioth roars in the distant, Cassandra whoops causing everyone else to cheer.
She goes over to Wade and right as she's about to do the same thing she did to Johnny — Wade holds his hands up, "Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah!" Cassandra stops, "I don't... I don't want the smoke. I don't have any beef with you. I just want to save my friends. I just..." Linda looks at Wade with pity — Wade gives her a pleading glance before he looks back at Cassandra, "I want to go home." Linda silently agrees with his words. Cassandra nods, "Well the thing is, I could get you home." She walks over to be behind Wade — "Good." He chuckles nervously. "But I don't want to." Cassandra whispers into his ear and the mercenary hisses, "Not good." He groans and Cassandra's fingers phase into his head — Linda stares in disgust and horror. "What do you want, Wade Wilson?" The man strains, "Your... fingers are inside me... but not in a good way."
"My brother could enter one's mind with a thought." Cassandra smiles as she speaks, "I have to get my hands dirty." Wade groans — he begins to speak to someone who isn't there — he mumbles and stammers and sounds as if he wants to cry. Linda furrows her brows in confusion as she watches Wade begin to shake his head. "She never said that." He exclaims and Cassandra pulls her fingers out of his head, "No." Wade groans as he falls to the ground, he rubs his face with his hands. "But I bet she thought it." Cassandra speaks in a mocking tone. Wade splutters before groaning as he stands, "You are so mean!" He yells, "My brain could taste your fingers, and they tasted like hate!" He exclaims, "And where in God's name is the intimacy coordinator? I mean, I know this is a fan fiction but jeez! Too much!" Cassandra shakes her head, "You're so lost Mr. Wilson, and long before you came here." Her words drip with venom.
Wade bends down and pulls out a small knife, he points at it — Linda looks over — "This is Baby Knife. She's gonna fuck you in the face now." Cassandra chuckles, "If you want to kill me, it's going to take more than a little blade." Wade shrugs, "How about six?" Cassandra laughs mockingly, "My boy's wicked strong. That's my big boy," she speaks to Alioth, "yes, you are. Well, this has been fun." She walks back to Charles's chair, "But the big guy needs to eat, and the rent is due." Alioth roars and thunder flashes in the distance. As Cassandra goes to sit down she turns back to look at Linda and Wade, "By the way. You're the rent." She points at the two and thunder rumbles — Alioth has gotten a lot closer. Cassandra is now gone. The henchmen begin to scream in fear of Alioth. Linda thinks quickly and sees one of the many Mad Max style vehicles and quickly gets onto one, trying her best to start it.
"Come on. Come on fucker." She mutters and to her surprise, it starts. Wade is looking around — Linda yells at him, "You comin' or what, mouth?!" Wade quickly runs towards her, "Coming!" He gets on behind her and the two ride off away from Cassandra's lair.

After a while of driving — the engine begins to sputter — Linda looks down and before she can even react, the engine blows, causing the two to go flying. The two hero's grunt in pain, Linda lays on her back — coughing as she opens her eyes and sees Wade staring right back at her, he continues to stare, "What you thinkin' about?" He asks dreamily. Linda grits her teeth, "Get the fuck off of me." Wade nods, "Sh, sh, sh, almost done." Linda furrows her brows — her claws begin to come out, "Almost done what?" Wade grunts, "Getting my knife out of your buttocks, pervert." Linda rolls her eyes before pushing Wade off of her, "Aah fuck!" He exclaims. Linda groans as she stands. "Get your mind out of my pants!" Wade says as he places his knife back in its holster. "I should be saying that to you bub." Linda responds before she point at herself.
"New rules. I talk now." Wade crosses his arms, "That's gonna be very hard on the audience and the author. I'm more entertaining, I think it's cause I'm not super brooding and angry like you." Linda suddenly yells at him, "Shut the fuck up! Let me fuckin' think." The two begin to walk, "Now we gotta get back to Paradox, right?" Wade doesn't answer her, "Right?" She repeats and Wade looks up, "Je m'excuse. Am I allowed to speak now or...?" Linda looks like she's going to explode with anger, "Just nod asshole." Wade does as she says. "Right. Then we find the others that that poor kid, Johnny, was talking about before you got him killed." Wade scoffs, "Poor kid? He's like, fifty!" Linda waves him off, "Yeah, if there's a chance they know how to get out of here, we find 'em." Linda stops walking and grabs Wade by the collar — pulling him down to be at her level, "And make those TVA fuckers fix my shit like you fuckin' promised!" Wade giggles, "I like this angle." Linda lets him go with a scoff, the mercenary skips beside her, "I smell quest!" He announces and Linda stops in her tracks, she sniffs, "I smell food."
